Petite Bag 5x5

We have wanted to create a miniature shopping bag as a petite for a while. We have been using this technique in our Butterfly Surprise pieces for a while and a miniature one sounded like a fun challenge. We start with a small jewelry or accessory shopping bag, deconstruct it, then embroider it. The bag is the re-constructed over a form , the handles are added and we stuff each bag with remnants of luxury scarves. The bag is finished with two embroidered butterflies mounted in relief on the bag.

Each petite is framed and mounted in acrylic.

Each is unique and signed and numbered on the back

Framed size is 5” wide by 5” high
